So my kids have gone back to school today and I'm a little sad that summer vacation is over.  I feel that my job as a mom is to create great memories for them while teaching them to take care of themselves and making right choices and .... You get the point. So I have this nagging voice in my head that is always questioning what I'm doing, like "am I doing enough" or "am I doing this right"??? Well it's annoying but also good because I can evaluate what I'm doing and change it up if I need to. As my kids get older I realize that time with them is so precious and it goes by FAST. It doesn't seem like that when they are little but wow, it's like a dream the past 15 years of my parent experience. So as I was thinking about this this morning I read a post from Andy Andrews "We live in the present. We can’t do anything about the decisions we have made except live with them. We are not made with the ability to always make right decisions. However, we are made with the ability to MAKE a decision…then make it right." - it is just what I needed today. Right now in my life raising children is the MOST important thing I can do so my plan is to focus on that and hope everything else will turn out.

During church I was listening to an older man give a talk and he said " this younger generation and their twexting." We all had a good silent laugh.
